Subsequent to the end of the quarter, to mitigate future risks, the Company sold forward 2,000 tonnes of copper per month for 2006 at an average price $3,475 per tonne or $1.58 per pound. The Company also purchased put options on an additional 2,000 tonnes of copper per month at a strike price of $3,000 per tonne or $1.36 per pound with full participation if the copper price is above the strike price. Combined, these forward sales and put options represent approximately 50% of the expected 2006 copper production from the Neves-Corvo mine.
